Hi,
I am trying to configure VMware Server 1.0.8 on openSUSE 11.1. But not
able to configure it …
vmware-config.pl
Making sure services for VMware Server are stopped.
Stopping VMware services:
Virtual machine monitor
done
Configuring fallback GTK+ 2.4 libraries.
In which directory do you want to install the mime type icons?
[/usr/share/icons]
What directory contains your desktop menu entry files? These files have
a
.desktop file extension. [/usr/share/applications]
In which directory do you want to install the application’s icon?
[/usr/share/pixmaps]
/usr/share/applications/vmware-server.desktop: warning: value
“vmware-server.png” for key “Icon” in group “Desktop Entry” is an icon
name with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in
the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path
/usr/share/applications/vmware-console-uri-handler.desktop: warning:
value “vmware-server.png” for key “Icon” in group “Desktop Entry” is an
icon name with an extension, but there should be no extension as
described in the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an

Trying to find a suitable vmmon module for your running kernel.
None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for
your
running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon
module for
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)?
[yes] yes
Using compiler “/usr/bin/gcc”. Use environment variable CC to
override.
Your kernel was built with “gcc” version “4.3.2”, while you are trying
to use
“/usr/bin/gcc” version “4.3”. This configuration is not recommended and
VMware
Server may crash if you’ll continue. Please try to use exactly same
compiler as
one used for building your kernel. Do you want to go with compiler
“/usr/bin/gcc” version “4.3” anyway? [no] yes
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your
running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.27.7-9-pae/build/include]
Extracting the sources of the vmmon module.
Building the vmmon module.
